Dave - don't get upset - I just thought that your posting was about joining the
2 lines of thought together. That has been considered already. My point is
precisely that.  I'm not attempting to debunk it here... Is that what you want?
I just didn't want to mix the threads and further confuse anyone reading them.

You asked, "Why not both?", and I responded with a non-scientific answer. I
provided a philosphical answer.  Surely that's ok within the limits of how _I_
want to answer here?  I'm reserving scientific evidence for the other threads -
rather than repeat myself in different threads.

I suppose I could have ignored your posting, but that wouldn't have been
constructive.  No offense intended.
